  1. For those of you who have never witnessed 900%+ implied volatility, check out DJT. In fact, the 2.5 Puts "expiring" this week with the underlying at 34 are trading over 1000% implied volatility. (.02 x .03) The 105 calls are "only" 600% implied volatility, trading around .60.

    Not a recommendation. Just an observation. :D

  2. Almost a drop of 40% in a week.
    BTC is also dropping. It seems that is going the lady's way.

  3. I looked at it and thought about trading, you’all can have it! When a sweet Ken Calhaun play (TWLO $85-$90 calls) were talking dirty to me, couldn’t refuse!

    Q.E.D.

    IMO, the obvious manipulation of both betting markets, & DJT stock, by a few whales, would likely stop by later today, as no longer could it influence potential voters.

    Whether T wins or not, there is no viable business, and win or lose, likely T will try to sell his 115 million shares, although probably first float some possible take-overs, mergers, etc., to first boost the price.
